Old cycling pictures/ postcards

[Msa]

I want to frame some prints for my wall, and thought that a cycling theme would be nice for a
change. Any ideas as to where in the UK I might be able to find some nice b/w postcards (preferable
racing, but would consider others) that I could frame? Also bigger prints would be nice for the odd
framed picture here and there.

Ideas on the back of a postcard :-) Alternatively, post here...by the time I hopefully receive some
replies I would have worked this Gravity News reader out!

Thanks in advance

Yes, I had browsed eBay and marked a few items to watch. Didn't think about tobacco cards though,
will have to start looking with that as a search word. I guess you can buy specific mounts for
framing cigarette cards?...any collectors out there that can advise?

Thanks for the links Tony
